I just wanted to share. I had my band in Jan 07. I have lost 29 lbs. Have cut my metformin pills in half, no heartburn or reflux. I was wearing a 44D and a 24/26. Now I am a 40C!!!!!! and this past weekend all I wore were size 16!!!!!!!!!!! It felt great. Everyone at the dog show I was at were amazed. Plus I ran the courses of agility the best I have ever done!!!!!!!!:whoo:

My band might be slower than most but I sure am reaping in the rewards!!!!!!!!:P

Thanks for being here and letting me share.:)

HELLO ALL JUST WANTED TO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT I HAVE LOST 23# SINCE THE END OF MAY AND THAT INCLUDEDS THE 10DAY PREOP DIET. :whoo:I WAS JUST BANDED ON AUG 20TH YEAH... ALL IS WELL, FEEL GREAT SO FAR. TAKEING PAIN MEDICATIONS AND DOING FINE. I AM HAVING A LITTLE DIARRHEA THOUGH. IM SURE THAT IT IS NORMAL THOUGH. I HAVE STARTD CRUSHING MY METFORMIN AND MY ZOCORE AND PUTTING THEM IN Water OR SUGER FREE COOLAID TO TAKE THEM IN THE AM. BOY THEY ARE BITTER AND TASTE NASTEY. HOPEFULLY WHEN I LOSE MORE WEIGHT, I WILL NOT HAVE TO TAKE THEM. I HAVE TWO MORE DAYS OF CLEAR liquid diet AND THEN I CAN START ON THE FULL liquid DIET UNTIL I SEE THE DOCTOR ON AUG 28TH FOR MY FOLLOW UP. SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THE CREAMED SOUPS... I DID GO OUT AND PURCHASE THE MAGIC BULLET BLENDER TO HELP WITH THE food TASKS AND SUCH.. WOW I DID'NT REALIZE THAT IT DOES SO MUCH STUFF. WELL THANKS FOR LISTENING,CHAT MORE LATER

:help:I NEED TO UPDATE MY WEIGHT LOSS TASK BAR, FROM THE TICKLE FACTORY AND I CANNOT REMEMBER HOW. COULD SOMEONE PLEASE WALK ME THROUGH IT STEP BY STEP, SO I CAN UPDATE IT TO THE 23# THAT I HAVE LOST AND NOT THE 6# WHAT IT STATES NOW. THAT IS A TOTAL OF 23# INCLUDING THE 6 # THAT IS ALREADY ON THE LITTLE FROGGING HOPPING DOWN THE POUNDS.:help:

Congrats!!!! That is AWESOME!

I look forward to the day I can get into a 16. Strangely I've lost almost 70 lbs ans STILL haven't changed sizes! Odd, huh? 30 lbs and you've changed a couple! How cool is that? That's wonderful!!

I keep telling myself that one day I'll just all of a sudden have a shift and my size will change drastically. At least that's what I'm hoping for.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
